PINT OF PERSPECTIVE: EPISODE 4
PINT OF PERSPECTIVE EPISODE 4: Claire
In the latest episode of Pint of Perspective, we talk to the brilliant, inspiring Claire about the effects of menopause on women in the workplace.
An impassioned member of the Greene Sky employee-led inclusion group (ELIG) at Greene King, Claire is helping to drive an agenda for greater awareness among employers of the challenges facing women experiencing perimenopause and postmenopause.
She discusses how "brain fog," memory loss and anxiety played their part in her own menopausal experience. Not to mention the eventual euphoria of the "second spring" that she experienced, and the hope that comes as the effects of menopause subside.
Claire also advocates for developing employers' approaches to accommodating cis and trans women undergoing this challenging period of their professional lives. And talks about how Greene King is attempting to get ahead of the curve on addressing this vital issue.
Whether you're an HR professional interested in how to develop robust menopause policies or are simply curious to learn more about this underrepresented women's issue, Pint of Perspective provides some amazing insights from a valued member of the Greene King business.
If you or anyone close to you is affected by the symptoms of menopause, this podcast may provide the answers, reassurances, and further areas of exploration you're looking for.
And, if you'd like to learn more about how Greene King addresses other aspects of inclusion and diversity, you can explore other episodes in the series or browse more of our careers website.
